    Amazing

    6 years ago
    I got this #freeproduct from #trywithtopbox and I can honestly say this is my new favourite toner. This product has a nice light floral scent. It easily dispenses onto a cotton ball or pad and smooths over the face very gently and doesn’t leave you with that harsh burning or tightening. You can notice a difference in pore size and leaves your face feeling super clean and fresh. Finally happy with a product that doesn’t feel like put acetone on my face. This is Deff a must for my ladies with oily skin helps reamove those pores and Mats the skin to help elimate that shine. This is a staple piece in my skin care routine for sure.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    A great toner for oily skin!

    I received this #freeproduct from #trywithtopbox. I have been using it now for several days in conjunction with the Normaderm Facial wash and the 24 hour corrective anti-acne treatment lotion. I am currently experiencing some severe hormonal acne and this product along with the other 2 mentioned have made such an amazing difference in my skin. My acne has already diminished greatly after only a few days and the oil my face produces on a regular basis has been kept at bay. The smell is pleasant and my skin feels refreshed after using this toner. It definitely aids in unclogging my pores and tightening them! I will be purchasing again once I finish this bottle!

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    I got this product as a free sample to try. I used it with the other products in this line. It says to put it on before you begin your daily regimine or such, but not to wash it off. I used it at night for 2 nights. The first night I put it on before the other products, but one you need to wash off so the next night I used it after that product, before the acne lotion. I'm not sure if it works, I'll need to use it more daily to find out. Although it says lotion, this product is in no way like a lotion in the sense that it's like a cream you put on your face. It's more of a liquid. And being a liquid, you don't need much to cover your face. #freeproduct #trywithtopbox

    I got this product for free to try out from #topbox I used this product every night and day for the past 7 days. The purifying lotion worked wonders for me. I have acne prone skin but if the product is too strong I get eczema. I have struggled to find a good toner that worked for breakouts as well as sensitive skin. I felt I got a good finishing clean that helped remove any of the remainder of the dirt/oil that was on my face while tightening my pores at the same time without leaving me feeling like my skin was on burning. The scent was lite and did not smell like the typically acne toner that I am use to. #freeproduct #topbox #trywithtopbox #freesample #ad #vichycanada

    Is it me or is it difficult to find toners these days? Everything seems to have shifted to micellar water. I always use a toner before my moisturizer and am glad to have gotten to try this one out. It is very soothing, I think it's helping my face stay clear along with the Normaderm Deep Cleansing Gel and Corrective Anti Acne treatment. It's my go to 3 step combo at the moment. I use it twice a day, always after the cleanser and right before my moisturizer. It has a nice light scent and has not caused any flare ups to my sensitive/oily skin. It doesn't feel stripping like other toners I've tried and also doesn't feel greasy like some others. #topboxcircle #freeproduct

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    Great toner but strong alcohol scent

    6 years ago
    I received this product free from topbox circle and have been using it twice daily along with the matching cleansing gel and hydrator from the line. This is actually a great toner and the combination of all three products have kept a check on my acne and my skin clear the past couple of weeks. However, my only issue with this is that is has a strong scent of alcohol that is too much for me personally. I like the ingredients is has like salicylic and glycolic acid as they have worked great for my skin type but the scent is why I took a star off. This might be the only product I might not purchase over time.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    I received this product from TopBox and Vichy in exchange for my honest opinion. I had high hopes for this product, although unfortunately it was a let down. The scent was really nice and light, although the product itself didn't do much for my skin. I didn't find my pores to be any more tightened or less noticeable than before. I used this product for a few weeks to give it a fair chance, although I found my skin had more acne than before and the acne lasted longer than usual. My other acne care system definitely works much better. I will keep using this product for a couple more weeks, although if I do not see a difference in my skin I will be switching back to my original acne care system.

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Nice product

    I found this was great if used sparingly and as more of a spot treatment than as an overall toner. As with the moisturizer, it cleared up some pimples but left my skin sort of dry and exacerbated redness. At first I was using it with the other products from the same line, but the three together were too powerful for my sensitive skin. So then I started using this sparingly as a spot treatment, mostly on my chin. When I use this I need a very rich moisturizer as it tends to have a drying effect on my skin. This product is not very scented, and didn't bother me. #freeproduct #trywithtopbox

      Great Concept, Alcohol-y Smell/Feel

      6 years ago
      I was sent this and two other products to try and was most excited to test the toner; however, it had a residual scent/feel that made me wary of it because it reminded me of harsher toners containing alcohol. I didn’t get any skin irritations from it, but my face would feel dry after use. I do think it helped clean my pores, though, and so I wasn’t expecting it to be overly hydrating. It’s a product that I can honestly recommend to others, but I’d encourage you to follow it with an essence or moisturizing toner to rebalance your skin’s moisture content to avoid excessive oil production.

      Yes, I recommend this product.

      I received a NORMADERM PURIFYING LOTION PORE TIGHTENING TONER FOR ACNE-PRONE SKIN #freeproduct from Topbox in exchange for my honest opinion. I have been using it for more than three weeks and found that the product helps my skin because it is acne-prone, high pores, oil in excess in my T zone and dullness. I notice improvement in every aspect mentioned, and even make my skin softener. I use it as part of my 3 steps routine and I love this toner. I have no problem with the alcohol base because my skin is not sensitive to it but could be a problem for some of my friends so I recommended to them but I make sure to let them know about that. Easy to apply I will buy more of this product as soon as it finish

      Yes, I recommend this product.

      This is literally alcohol for your face

      6 years ago
      I received this complimentary from topbox circle to test and review, but I did not like it. When I use a toner, I would prefer it to be hydrating and balancing, even though I have oily skin. This contains denatured alcohol which is designed to dry out the skin, so it makes sense to include that in a product marketed for oily skin. It does work. But oily skin is really just dehydrated skin that compensates by secreting oil. That being said, this product may have immediate results by drying out my skin, but it doesn't help long-term because my skin just produces more oil later on.

      No, I do not recommend this product.

      Thank you Vichy for sending me this product to test. I used this yesterday evening after using the Vichy cleanser. I really like that it removed the last of my makeup that wasn’t washed off from the cleanser leaving my face feeling squeaky clean. I felt some tingling after using the astringent (to be expected). I did experience some redness after application but it didn’t last too long. I like that the smell doesn’t smell like a typical astringent (alcohol) which I appreciate because strong astringent smells can make my eyes water. All in all I’d use it again. #freeproduct

      Effective without causing irritation

      6 years ago
      I received this product for free as part of the Topbox Circle review program. I have been using for 14 days along with the moisturizer and the cleanser in the Normaderm line, and I am definitely seeing results. I did not notice any scent in this cleanser. It's very gentle, no burning sensation. It helps to dry out current acne spots and leaves skin feeling oil-free. I noticed a slight tightening sensation and more pores are smaller and less noticeable after using this. I think this will be great to alternate with a glycolic acid toner for maximum anti-acne and exfoliating effects. I will likely continue to purchase this product when I run out, as I really enjoy using it and have seen positive results. #freeproduct

      Yes, I recommend this product.

      I received this #freeproduct from Vichy via Topbox Circle #trywithtopbox. I use this at night before bed and under my make up I’m the morning. It leave a cool, slight burning feeling on your skin as most toners do. The name of “lotion” is a little confusing as this definitely looks and feels like a toner to me. It needs to be applied with a cotton pad. That being said, it is amazing and gets the job done. My pores look smaller, skin smoother and even skin tone. It makes my face feel tighter and overall I am satisfied with this product! A definite must with the line.

      Yes, I recommend this product.

      I recieved this product as a #freeproduct from #topbox. And I love it, instantly feels refreshing when applying to face. Does not have an overpowering scent, Infact has no scent at all. Your skin instantly glows when it dries. And I have noticed my pores and skin looking tighter. I found when used with the Vichy anti acne cream, it really achieved the look I was wanting. I have noticed a dramatic decrease of oil living in the creases of my nose, and forehead, which were my problem spots. All in all I'm super satisfied with this product and brand. #tryitwithtopbox.

      I received this from Topbox to review and although I am beyond confused by the fact that this is called a lotion I absolutely love the product. I don’t usually use toner but I found that it really did help to tighten my pores and was really nice step before moisturizing. I didn't find this overly hydrating but that is usually not what I'm looking for in a toner. It created a smooth base when used together we a cream or primer. I do wish that these products came in a spray bottle instead of the capped bottle. I feel there would be less waste that way. #freeproduct

      Too drying for my skin...but love the rest of the range

      14 years ago
      It is always dififcult reviewing skincare products as everyone's skin is different - I have oily skin with visible pores and occasional spots. I recently swapped to the Vichy Normaderm range from another famous 3-step brand and am really impressed with the face wash and day/night creams. However, this is the only part of the Normaderm range which hasn't really worked for me. Its seemed to really dry my skin out making it very flaky and red. I did persevere for a couple of weeks but then decided to just stop using it altogether. Now just using the Normaderm face wash and day/night creams and this seems to be the perfect combination for my skin. Am sure this would work for some people but not for me and so I won't be repurchasing.

      No, I do not recommend this product.

      I've been using this Toner for a few years now and it definitely cleans my skin - I once ran out and hadn't bought a new bottle in a week and my face broke out like mad, so it definitely works. However having read the product description, I must say that it hasn't tightened my pores. For an 18 year old girl my pores are pretty big, and I don't feel that it has helped to tighten them (Although it may just be my facial routine ruining the effect of the toner or something.) I just can't resist that medicinal-ish smell though :) adds to the whole clean feel.

      Thank you Topbox and Vichy Canada for the opportunity to test and review Vichy Laboratoires Normaderm Purifying Pore-Tightening Lotion. This toner with salicylic and glycolic acid deep-cleaned my skin and minimized the appearance of pores. It has a light scent and is non-irritating. My skin felt refreshed once I applied it to my face. I used it in the morning and night, after using the Novaderm Deep Cleansing Purifying Gel. While using this no-rinse toner, my skin was blemish-free. I will continue using this product. #freeproduct #trywithtopbox

      I received this toner from Topbox to try #freesample #ad. This toner is lightly fragranced with a smooth, water-like texture. I used this morning and night right after cleanser. I applied this toner in two ways; for the first method, I dampened a cotton pad with the toner and swiped the pad across my face; secondly, I put some of the toner into the palms of my hand and patted it into my skin, and the former method of application worked well with my skin, as it was left feeling smoother. This toner did not dry me out or cause any new breakouts.

      Yes, I recommend this product.

      I have been using this astringent for a week. I have suffered with acne for years and always use some sort of toner/astringent after cleansing my face. I used this product after cleansing with the Vichy Normaderm cleanser. The product easily dispenses onto a cotton ball. To me this astringent has a floral scent which is very pleasant considering the medicinal ingredients in it. I have found that while using this astringent my pores look smaller than usual. I am very pleased about that! I also find that it makes my skin look matte and keeps the oily shine away. My skin also feel softer and smoother. Overall, I will continue to use this astringent for the positive effects I have seen thus far. #freeproduct #freesample #trywithtopbox

      I received this item free through TopBox to test it out and I do like it and think it works great,but I find it has quite an alcohol scent to it when applying to the face, which I think is what stings a bit on my acne. It doesn’t feel bad on the skin and I do find it is a good toner, I just don’t think I would use it daily. That being said after using it my skin feels super clean and not tight, I also find it doesn’t make my skin feel oily during the day like most alcohol scented toners do to me. I would probably purchase this in the future.

      I received this as a #freeproduct from Topbox Circle. I have acne-prone, combination skin. I've been using this product in the morning and at night. I've noticed a difference in the overall texture and clarity of my skin since starting this product. It has helped to clear up my initial acne breakouts, and seems to be keeping new breakouts at bay! I've found that it doesn't have that normal toner smell, it's more of a light fresh scent. It hasn't caused any reaction, and it doesn't give that "stripped" feeling that I usually get from toners.

I use the 3-step system for maximum efficacy. Works great with my sensitive skin even though it is scented with a fresh, clean scent. Keeps pimples at bay with its medicated ingredients (LHA, salicylic and glycolic acid). My pores look so smooth, I will definitely be repurchasing this when this bottle is done! I recommend!

      I received this toner as a #freeproduct from Topbox Circle in exchange for an honest review. I have acne-prone, sensitive and oily skin. I have been using this product twice a day for the past two weeks. It has a slight alcohol smell, which is to be expected for a toner, but I was worried as my skin is sensitive to alcohol. It felt a bit drying after application, but nevertheless the drying feeling subsides and my skin has not flared up. Overall I’m happy with the results and would recommend this product with acne-prone skin.

      I got this toner as a #freeproduct from Topbox Circle and have been using it, along with the deep cleansing gel and the anti-acne 24h moisturizer, for about three weeks. I have been using this toner every morning and night after cleansing my face and have noticed a significant difference in the size of my pores. I will say, however, that it does leave my face a little bit red and feeling itchy, but that feeling goes away after a few minutes. I am willing to look past that, considering the effectiveness of the product.

      I was excited to receive this as a free product from Topbox Circle to try it out but was left a little disappointed. For being a product labelled for "sensitive" skin I was surprised and disappointed to see that the second ingredient was alcohol. Which alot of people with even oily/acne prone sensitive skin can be irritating and over drying which in turn can lead to more oiliness. When I first used it, it stung any parts of my face that had open comodones and burned ever where else. My skin did feel tighter but in the overly dried out way and ended up peeling and flaking in some spots (which it hasn't done since I gave up alcohol based toners years ago). I stopped using it after a couple days of trying it out but it was just too uncomfortable to keep using on my face.

      I received this pore tightening toner free from topbox. I’ve been using this product along with the cleanser and moisturizer twice a day for the last few weeks. I liked that it has the same fresh scent as the other products, but it does have a slight alcohol scent as well. A little of the product does go a long way, so the bottle will last you. This product isn’t super drying on the face which is nice and hard to find in a toner, however i didn’t find it helped unclog or tighten my pores or help reduce my breakouts.

      I've been using this astringent for about 3 weeks in the evening after washing my face. It definitely gets off extra dirt that may have been missed when just washing my face. I do find that if you get to close to sensitive areas like the corners of your mouth or your nose, it caused my skin to peel and crack in those areas. It was fine on the rest of my face. Overall I thought the product was good but don't think I'd purchase it. I received this product for free in exchange for an honest review from TopBox Circle.

      #trywithtopbox #freeproduct I got this product for free to try and tried it every night for 7 days. I like the toner that it tightens while not being too strong. Some toners i found were drying and so strong that it hurt my face. This toner tightens your face while still being gentle and doesn't dry out your face. I found it worked well to combat any signs of acne and get rid of the acne before it became visible. The outcome was super soft skin that looked tighten and I have had no acne over the last seven days.

      I do not suffer from cystic acne, I do however, get random adult pimples and a lot of tiny bumps on my forehead. I was using a cheap drug store acne wash for years and it worked great until recently, I think as you age your skin just changes. My skin would not stop breaking out in tiny pimples, I have this a shot and after 1 week of use I did not see any new breakouts and my existing pimples started getting smaller. The texture of my skin even looks better. Thank you Vichy, I will continue to use this product.

      I’m using this toner for about a week after I clean my face with Normaderm Deep cleansing Gel and it clearly gives a higher and powerful cleanse to your skin. I confess that I’m not a huge fan of toners because I used some that overcleaned and let my face with an oily look, but this one is totally different. My pores are lighter and smaller, my skin looks healthier and I’d recommend it for everyone with oily skin and acne problems as me. Also, super fresh and great smell. Thanks! #freeproduct #trywithtopbox

      I received this product free as a part of Vichy's campaign with Topbox #freeproduct #trywithtopbox. This toner is a life saver. It unclogs the pores while deep cleansing it, preventing it from any future affliction. It is gently while it peels skin to a healtheir glow without peeling flaky skin. It has refined my pores, hence controlling the sebum production and excessive shine. I love the scent, like the entire line, it smells pleasant. I'd definitely recommend this product as it's worth the investment.

      "I've used the cleansing gel and the moisturizing lotion and though they work well together, my skin care routine wasn't complete without the toner! After washing my face thoroughly I was surprised when I looked at the cotton pad at how much dirt and makeup was left over under the surface of my skin. This stuff is gold. Now that I've added this toner to my skin care routine my face is clear my pores look tighter and all the scars, imperfections and uneven skin tone are gone!! It all just vanished! Every week I see improvement in my skin. I was amazed because I've been struggling with acne since I was 8 and this is the first time in YEARS that I've had completely clear skin without a pimple or blemish in sight! I will continue to religiously use this toner in my Vichy skin care routine."

      I received this #freeproduct through #trywithtopbox and will be buying it once I run out. The label states it is a lotion, however, is used more as a toner after cleansing the skin. It is meant to tighten pores, and I was skeptical as to how well it would work. After using it for 4 mornings and evenings, I can say that my skin feels smoother and pores tighter. After using this product, my makeup applies better than before. My skin is sensitive and I have not had any irritation using this product.

      I received this product for free to review through Topbox Circle. I’ve been using it as a toner during my night-time routine. Personally, I am not a big fan of this toner. I found it to be a bit too drying for what I typically expect out of a toner and I found the scent to be unpleasant (to me it smelled heavily of alcohol.) Other than finding it a bit drying, I did not see a noticeable difference when using this toner compared to when I did not include it in my skincare routine. #freeproduct

      No, I do not recommend this product.

      I received the Normaderm Purifying Pore-Tightening Lotion Complimentary as part of a Glamsense Program and was very pleased with the feeling it provided upon application. It left my face feeling clean and fresh without feeling leaving it feeling tight or irritating it like some Toning Lotions do. However I did feel like this product would be better suited to Normal/Combination-Sensitive skin as my skin can be on the Dry-Sensitive side and it seemed to make my skin produce more oil while using.

      Yes, I recommend this product.

      I received this #freeproduct for review from Topbox Circle. This toner smells great! The smell is not overwhelming and fades away after application. I did not experience any dryness, burning or irritation with this product. My skin felt soft and refreshed after using this. It seems very effective in cleaning my pores and keeping the oil production under control. This has become my favourite toner now! It also helped with my makeup removal. I would definitely repurchase this toner again.

        Great Concept, Alcohol-y Smell/Feel

        6 years ago
        I was sent this and two other products to try and was most excited to test the toner; however, it had a residual scent/feel that made me wary of it because it reminded me of harsher toners containing alcohol. I didn’t get any skin irritations from it, but my face would feel dry after use. I do think it helped clean my pores, though, and so I wasn’t expecting it to be overly hydrating. It’s a product that I can honestly recommend to others, but I’d encourage you to follow it with an essence or moisturizing toner to rebalance your skin’s moisture content to avoid excessive oil production.

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        I received a NORMADERM PURIFYING LOTION PORE TIGHTENING TONER FOR ACNE-PRONE SKIN #freeproduct from Topbox in exchange for my honest opinion. I have been using it for more than three weeks and found that the product helps my skin because it is acne-prone, high pores, oil in excess in my T zone and dullness. I notice improvement in every aspect mentioned, and even make my skin softener. I use it as part of my 3 steps routine and I love this toner. I have no problem with the alcohol base because my skin is not sensitive to it but could be a problem for some of my friends so I recommended to them but I make sure to let them know about that. Easy to apply I will buy more of this product as soon as it finish

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        I received this complimentary from topbox circle to test and review, but I did not like it. When I use a toner, I would prefer it to be hydrating and balancing, even though I have oily skin. This contains denatured alcohol which is designed to dry out the skin, so it makes sense to include that in a product marketed for oily skin. It does work. But oily skin is really just dehydrated skin that compensates by secreting oil. That being said, this product may have immediate results by drying out my skin, but it doesn't help long-term because my skin just produces more oil later on.

        No, I do not recommend this product.

        Thank you Vichy for sending me this product to test. I used this yesterday evening after using the Vichy cleanser. I really like that it removed the last of my makeup that wasn’t washed off from the cleanser leaving my face feeling squeaky clean. I felt some tingling after using the astringent (to be expected). I did experience some redness after application but it didn’t last too long. I like that the smell doesn’t smell like a typical astringent (alcohol) which I appreciate because strong astringent smells can make my eyes water. All in all I’d use it again. #freeproduct

        I received this product for free as part of the Topbox Circle review program. I have been using for 14 days along with the moisturizer and the cleanser in the Normaderm line, and I am definitely seeing results. I did not notice any scent in this cleanser. It's very gentle, no burning sensation. It helps to dry out current acne spots and leaves skin feeling oil-free. I noticed a slight tightening sensation and more pores are smaller and less noticeable after using this. I think this will be great to alternate with a glycolic acid toner for maximum anti-acne and exfoliating effects. I will likely continue to purchase this product when I run out, as I really enjoy using it and have seen positive results. #freeproduct

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        I received this #freeproduct from Vichy via Topbox Circle #trywithtopbox. I use this at night before bed and under my make up I’m the morning. It leave a cool, slight burning feeling on your skin as most toners do. The name of “lotion” is a little confusing as this definitely looks and feels like a toner to me. It needs to be applied with a cotton pad. That being said, it is amazing and gets the job done. My pores look smaller, skin smoother and even skin tone. It makes my face feel tighter and overall I am satisfied with this product! A definite must with the line.

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        I recieved this product as a #freeproduct from #topbox. And I love it, instantly feels refreshing when applying to face. Does not have an overpowering scent, Infact has no scent at all. Your skin instantly glows when it dries. And I have noticed my pores and skin looking tighter. I found when used with the Vichy anti acne cream, it really achieved the look I was wanting. I have noticed a dramatic decrease of oil living in the creases of my nose, and forehead, which were my problem spots. All in all I'm super satisfied with this product and brand. #tryitwithtopbox.

        I received this from Topbox to review and although I am beyond confused by the fact that this is called a lotion I absolutely love the product. I don’t usually use toner but I found that it really did help to tighten my pores and was really nice step before moisturizing. I didn't find this overly hydrating but that is usually not what I'm looking for in a toner. It created a smooth base when used together we a cream or primer. I do wish that these products came in a spray bottle instead of the capped bottle. I feel there would be less waste that way. #freeproduct

        14 years ago
        It is always dififcult reviewing skincare products as everyone's skin is different - I have oily skin with visible pores and occasional spots. I recently swapped to the Vichy Normaderm range from another famous 3-step brand and am really impressed with the face wash and day/night creams. However, this is the only part of the Normaderm range which hasn't really worked for me. Its seemed to really dry my skin out making it very flaky and red. I did persevere for a couple of weeks but then decided to just stop using it altogether. Now just using the Normaderm face wash and day/night creams and this seems to be the perfect combination for my skin. Am sure this would work for some people but not for me and so I won't be repurchasing.

        No, I do not recommend this product.

        I've been using this Toner for a few years now and it definitely cleans my skin - I once ran out and hadn't bought a new bottle in a week and my face broke out like mad, so it definitely works. However having read the product description, I must say that it hasn't tightened my pores. For an 18 year old girl my pores are pretty big, and I don't feel that it has helped to tighten them (Although it may just be my facial routine ruining the effect of the toner or something.) I just can't resist that medicinal-ish smell though :) adds to the whole clean feel.

        Thank you Topbox and Vichy Canada for the opportunity to test and review Vichy Laboratoires Normaderm Purifying Pore-Tightening Lotion. This toner with salicylic and glycolic acid deep-cleaned my skin and minimized the appearance of pores. It has a light scent and is non-irritating. My skin felt refreshed once I applied it to my face. I used it in the morning and night, after using the Novaderm Deep Cleansing Purifying Gel. While using this no-rinse toner, my skin was blemish-free. I will continue using this product. #freeproduct #trywithtopbox

        I received this toner from Topbox to try #freesample #ad. This toner is lightly fragranced with a smooth, water-like texture. I used this morning and night right after cleanser. I applied this toner in two ways; for the first method, I dampened a cotton pad with the toner and swiped the pad across my face; secondly, I put some of the toner into the palms of my hand and patted it into my skin, and the former method of application worked well with my skin, as it was left feeling smoother. This toner did not dry me out or cause any new breakouts.

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        I have been using this astringent for a week. I have suffered with acne for years and always use some sort of toner/astringent after cleansing my face. I used this product after cleansing with the Vichy Normaderm cleanser. The product easily dispenses onto a cotton ball. To me this astringent has a floral scent which is very pleasant considering the medicinal ingredients in it. I have found that while using this astringent my pores look smaller than usual. I am very pleased about that! I also find that it makes my skin look matte and keeps the oily shine away. My skin also feel softer and smoother. Overall, I will continue to use this astringent for the positive effects I have seen thus far. #freeproduct #freesample #trywithtopbox

        I received this item free through TopBox to test it out and I do like it and think it works great,but I find it has quite an alcohol scent to it when applying to the face, which I think is what stings a bit on my acne. It doesn’t feel bad on the skin and I do find it is a good toner, I just don’t think I would use it daily. That being said after using it my skin feels super clean and not tight, I also find it doesn’t make my skin feel oily during the day like most alcohol scented toners do to me. I would probably purchase this in the future.

        I received this as a #freeproduct from Topbox Circle. I have acne-prone, combination skin. I've been using this product in the morning and at night. I've noticed a difference in the overall texture and clarity of my skin since starting this product. It has helped to clear up my initial acne breakouts, and seems to be keeping new breakouts at bay! I've found that it doesn't have that normal toner smell, it's more of a light fresh scent. It hasn't caused any reaction, and it doesn't give that "stripped" feeling that I usually get from toners.

        I received this #freeproduct to test and review. This toner is EVERYTHING! It literally shrinks pores before your eyes! I have been using this for over a week now and I use it day and night. I use the 3-step system for maximum efficacy. Works great with my sensitive skin even though it is scented with a fresh, clean scent. Keeps pimples at bay with its medicated ingredients (LHA, salicylic and glycolic acid). My pores look so smooth, I will definitely be repurchasing this when this bottle is done! I recommend! Go get it! #trywithtopbox

        I received this toner as a #freeproduct from Topbox Circle in exchange for an honest review. I have acne-prone, sensitive and oily skin. I have been using this product twice a day for the past two weeks. It has a slight alcohol smell, which is to be expected for a toner, but I was worried as my skin is sensitive to alcohol. It felt a bit drying after application, but nevertheless the drying feeling subsides and my skin has not flared up. Overall I’m happy with the results and would recommend this product with acne-prone skin.

        I got this toner as a #freeproduct from Topbox Circle and have been using it, along with the deep cleansing gel and the anti-acne 24h moisturizer, for about three weeks. I have been using this toner every morning and night after cleansing my face and have noticed a significant difference in the size of my pores. I will say, however, that it does leave my face a little bit red and feeling itchy, but that feeling goes away after a few minutes. I am willing to look past that, considering the effectiveness of the product.

        I was excited to receive this as a free product from Topbox Circle to try it out but was left a little disappointed. For being a product labelled for "sensitive" skin I was surprised and disappointed to see that the second ingredient was alcohol. Which alot of people with even oily/acne prone sensitive skin can be irritating and over drying which in turn can lead to more oiliness. When I first used it, it stung any parts of my face that had open comodones and burned ever where else. My skin did feel tighter but in the overly dried out way and ended up peeling and flaking in some spots (which it hasn't done since I gave up alcohol based toners years ago). I stopped using it after a couple days of trying it out but it was just too uncomfortable to keep using on my face.

        No, I do not recommend this product.

        I received this pore tightening toner free from topbox. I’ve been using this product along with the cleanser and moisturizer twice a day for the last few weeks. I liked that it has the same fresh scent as the other products, but it does have a slight alcohol scent as well. A little of the product does go a long way, so the bottle will last you. This product isn’t super drying on the face which is nice and hard to find in a toner, however i didn’t find it helped unclog or tighten my pores or help reduce my breakouts.

        I've been using this astringent for about 3 weeks in the evening after washing my face. It definitely gets off extra dirt that may have been missed when just washing my face. I do find that if you get to close to sensitive areas like the corners of your mouth or your nose, it caused my skin to peel and crack in those areas. It was fine on the rest of my face. Overall I thought the product was good but don't think I'd purchase it. I received this product for free in exchange for an honest review from TopBox Circle.

        #trywithtopbox #freeproduct I got this product for free to try and tried it every night for 7 days. I like the toner that it tightens while not being too strong. Some toners i found were drying and so strong that it hurt my face. This toner tightens your face while still being gentle and doesn't dry out your face. I found it worked well to combat any signs of acne and get rid of the acne before it became visible. The outcome was super soft skin that looked tighten and I have had no acne over the last seven days.

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        I do not suffer from cystic acne, I do however, get random adult pimples and a lot of tiny bumps on my forehead. I was using a cheap drug store acne wash for years and it worked great until recently, I think as you age your skin just changes. My skin would not stop breaking out in tiny pimples, I have this a shot and after 1 week of use I did not see any new breakouts and my existing pimples started getting smaller. The texture of my skin even looks better. Thank you Vichy, I will continue to use this product.

        I’m using this toner for about a week after I clean my face with Normaderm Deep cleansing Gel and it clearly gives a higher and powerful cleanse to your skin. I confess that I’m not a huge fan of toners because I used some that overcleaned and let my face with an oily look, but this one is totally different. My pores are lighter and smaller, my skin looks healthier and I’d recommend it for everyone with oily skin and acne problems as me. Also, super fresh and great smell. Thanks! #freeproduct #trywithtopbox

        I received this product free as a part of Vichy's campaign with Topbox #freeproduct #trywithtopbox. This toner is a life saver. It unclogs the pores while deep cleansing it, preventing it from any future affliction. It is gently while it peels skin to a healtheir glow without peeling flaky skin. It has refined my pores, hence controlling the sebum production and excessive shine. I love the scent, like the entire line, it smells pleasant. I'd definitely recommend this product as it's worth the investment.

        "I've used the cleansing gel and the moisturizing lotion and though they work well together, my skin care routine wasn't complete without the toner! After washing my face thoroughly I was surprised when I looked at the cotton pad at how much dirt and makeup was left over under the surface of my skin. This stuff is gold. Now that I've added this toner to my skin care routine my face is clear my pores look tighter and all the scars, imperfections and uneven skin tone are gone!! It all just vanished! Every week I see improvement in my skin. I was amazed because I've been struggling with acne since I was 8 and this is the first time in YEARS that I've had completely clear skin without a pimple or blemish in sight! I will continue to religiously use this toner in my Vichy skin care routine."

        I received this #freeproduct through #trywithtopbox and will be buying it once I run out. The label states it is a lotion, however, is used more as a toner after cleansing the skin. It is meant to tighten pores, and I was skeptical as to how well it would work. After using it for 4 mornings and evenings, I can say that my skin feels smoother and pores tighter. After using this product, my makeup applies better than before. My skin is sensitive and I have not had any irritation using this product.
